One more hour, Uh Dodgers Tigers again. Second of three
games Tonight World Series Ring Presentation Night first pitch seven
to ten Dodgers on deck six o'clock.

Speaker 4 (01:21):
Ye, how does that translate on the radio?

Speaker 2 (01:25):
Interesting question?

Speaker 6 (01:26):
I think that's going to be a Kate's Dwayne Colin
vest say, production, Well.

Speaker 4 (01:33):
I just expect you to know most everything, Matt. You
know that's what.

Speaker 6 (01:36):
About I think that's the gift of description and narration
that Tim Kates is going to have to figure out.
Kate's what are have you and Dave and everybody planned
out how you're going to cover the world series ring presentation?
Who's going to do most of the talking?

Speaker 7 (01:51):
I don't think we're talking about it at all.

Speaker 2 (01:53):
Well, that would explain how they're going to cover it.
Then there we go.

Speaker 7 (01:57):
I mean it's radio, it's hard to show a ring.

Speaker 4 (01:59):
And there it is. Up there it is Jack Flaherty's
walking over to grab his ring.

Speaker 2 (02:05):
Oh look at that.

Speaker 6 (02:06):
So you're not going to do the procession of announcing
each of the player's name and then coming up and
you're talking about the cutting it.

Speaker 4 (02:12):
It feels like it would be cumbersome.

Speaker 7 (02:13):
You're right, Max Munsey is crying. This is unbelievable.

Speaker 4 (02:17):
Look at that. Munsey is wearing his Dodger uniform, his
customery uniform as it is a game.

Speaker 2 (02:22):
This is weird.

Speaker 7 (02:23):
David Mookie bets can wear it like a hula hoop
around his waist.

Speaker 4 (02:28):
God, buddy, we should have done a refitting. Should have
gone to refitting. So we got that tonight. Stay tuned
to see how we cover the rings. Ceremon.

Six remaining subspecies still here on earth Indo Chinese Sumatran,
South Chinese Malayan, the Bengal, of which is what we

Speaker 4 (04:55):
Five o'clock hour, brought to you by Marongo Casino Resort
and Spa. Less than ninety minutes down to ten from
wherever you are. Morongo Good Time. Dodgers are three and zero.
They take on the Tigers. Yamamoto Flaherty is the pitching matchup. Kentamada,
looking on his press conference, still going. The Lakers coming

(05:17):
off a devastating loss to the Bulls last night. They
are now the fourth seat in the West. Giddy took
it to him and Kobe White another coheat in Cambria.
Haircut look alike out there, Kobe White percentage of points

(05:37):
ahead of the Memphis Grizzlies are the Lakers now, and
they're in Memphis tomorrow for a big showdown. And Memphis
fired their head coach Taylor Jenkins because he did a
TikTok dance down twenty on the sideline with one of
his wires, allegedly. So all of that is going on
while the Lakers are on the road and the Clippers
are on the road right now.

Speaker 6 (05:56):
Matt going in a different direction than the Lake. Here's
Lakers figuring out how to lose a game. They were
up five with eleven seconds eighteen in the quarter back,
I mean up five with eleven seconds, Love honey, You
lose a game, can holds a lot of turn ups
two seconds.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
This is not the same team. You better embrace them.
Get your tickets. This is a specialty.

Speaker 4 (07:01):
Next in the mail, What's Kitty? It's like a seven
foot Jerry Hairston what.

Speaker 1 (07:10):
Kitty?

Speaker 4 (07:11):
It really changed the game for me, Matt. I watched
I watched that feed, and you know the sequence at
the end was something else. But I just couldn't stop
thinking about Stacey King. We talked about it earlier. My god, Yeah,
I don't know what to tell you, uh in Spokane tonight,
No matter which I'll tell you. Staying in UCLA takes
on old miss and the Sweet sixteen matchup. Corey Close,

(07:32):
A good looking lady is available. Uh, Mick Cronin got
some good news.

Speaker 6 (07:38):
Matt Sure did pile it up he uh garb Trent
Perry announced he is returning for his sophomore season. Three
other Bruins have also assured that they are coming back.
Sky Clark, Eric Day, Junior, Tyler Billdo So those U
acquisitions paid off, They'll stay another year. Multiple reports have
also linked the Bruins as a contend to land former

(08:01):
New Mexico junior guard Donovan Dent, the Mountain West player
of the year see what follows his head coach, Richard
Patino to Xavier. But word is that he very well
could be coming out here to UCLA. Last year twenty
one points, six and a half assists per game. So
there you go at the Mountain West was tough.

Speaker 4 (08:19):
The Fordham Rams, Vin Scully's alma mater nearing a deal
with UC Riversides Mike Magpie to become the programs next.

Speaker 2 (08:29):
I wonder what his family history is.

Speaker 4 (08:34):
Mike Magpile, the forty five year old coach of the
UC Riverside Highlanders, has compiled an eighty nine and sixty
three record in the Highlands at the scott and he
was on the bubble for the NCAA tournament and they
played in the NIT this postseason, so very exciting. Maybe

(08:54):
they hired Don McLean doe on it bought a seven
one thousand square foot State riverside.

Speaker 6 (09:04):
It cost me seventy five owner books a month for
ac coaching basketball.

Speaker 4 (09:09):
And I'm also running a program at rim of the
World high nice, very nice, and Matt. The big news
that we've been following in Domingus.

Speaker 6 (09:19):
Hills Division two and CAA tournament, jeremy Den Smith drops
thirty three to lead the Cal State Domingas Hills men's
basketball team to a ninety four eighty three O t
win over Dallas Baptist last n in the home of
Don Mattingley, Evansville, Indiana. The Totals will take on Nova

(09:42):
Southeastern that is oh Nova Scotia that is a Florida
based school, Nova Southeastern. They came in to the tournament
thirty five and one. It will be televised nationally tomorrow
at noon ahead of the NCAA tournament game. So you
get that on CBS.

Speaker 4 (09:59):
Nova Scoti mad I mean, geez, they're great at basketball
because they're indoors so cold.

Speaker 7 (10:03):
You know, their mascot the Nova Southeastern University.

Speaker 6 (10:07):
I'm gonna go with like a nineteen seventy two Chevy
Nova with those fat tires in the back.

Speaker 8 (10:13):
The Slicks, No, I'll give you a hint. They're located
just outside Miami, Florida. Okay, the Flamingos, the Sharks, oh okay, I.

Speaker 6 (10:24):
Thought it was gonna be better than That'd be like
an ibis, Like they's like, you know, my aunt love.
They stole the ibis from them. The bast got away
from it.

Speaker 7 (10:31):
Their mascot is Razor, the shortfin Mako Shark.

Speaker 4 (10:34):
Okay, well, what about Ralphie the female Buffalo. Colorado's given
Dion Sanders a new five year, fifty four million dollar deal.
You gotta stay ahead of the four years you're supposed
to hire a guy for. But uh, this is even
more warranted since he had some success last year. One

(10:55):
of the highest paid coaches in college football, which matches
the amount of attention he brings, ye starting a ten
million and ending with him making twelve million a year
in twenty twenty nine. We'll see what this year is
like without his kids and Travis Hunter. Although Shiloh a
little bit of a liability out there.

Speaker 2 (11:13):
Is that the one that one bankrupt?

Speaker 4 (11:15):
Yeah, well he went bankrupt a long time ago because
he owes some guy like oj his life savings for
beating him senseless, right, like senseless.

Speaker 6 (11:26):
I just think back to the Joel Clapp podcast where
he said everybody's asking him what's Dion going to do
for Colorado? And he said, that's not the right way
to look at it. It's more what's Colorado going to
do for Dion?

Speaker 4 (11:44):
Yeah, everywhere I turned, Matt, there's another insufferable story.

Speaker 2 (11:49):
What is Colorado going to do for Dion?

Speaker 4 (11:52):
What are you going to do? Rumor?

Speaker 8 (11:54):
Is there gonna become a running team now with a
new running back coach Marshall Fulk Well, I heard is.

Speaker 4 (11:59):
A big each. We played it when George Reinster was here.
It was very inspiring.

Speaker 6 (12:03):
Well, if he works as hard at that as he
did at the NFL network, I can only imagine the
great success he'll experience.

Speaker 4 (12:09):
Some guys just are more comfortable in a football Atmosopherhaps
we'll be right back with more pictures and money. The
top story of the day, Seamha Smith is coming at you.
It's a frog Man Friday on the Petro Send Money Show.

Petroson Money Show podcastable or stream live on the iHeart

I live in Vegas. Now I can't listen to the show.
And I say, you are sadly, but.

Speaker 6 (13:13):
Stay as long as you have a connection on that
smart device of your excuse me, woman, all right, Matt,
it's right here, mom.

Speaker 4 (13:28):
Lynn, all right, It's time for the top story of
the day, Top story of the day.

Speaker 6 (13:36):
Hell of a day for the Petroson Money Show. Yesterday,
hell of a day. Opening day was a great day.

Speaker 4 (13:42):
For the energy ramped up after we left.

Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yes, as typically happens, we are an energy suck.

Speaker 6 (13:49):
Emotional vampirism, but of all the conversations we had, and
we had many, and they were all great, there was
a moment that stood out ahead of the rest for me,
and it's stuck with me a little bit. Thought about
it yesterday, and then I thought about it again this
morning and not surprised that we harkened back to a

(14:09):
prior era, to one of our all time favorites, to
an MVP of the Petros and Money Show, to someone,
despite his regal demeanor and his stature in Los Angeles
sports society, did not think a trip to Hawaii was
below him on a cheap airline at a cheap hotel
with a bunch of cheap people. Not only was he

(14:32):
willing to go with us on our adventure to the islands.

Speaker 4 (14:36):
That's what Pat O'Brien said about the island adventure.

Speaker 6 (14:38):
Yes, he was willing to get married again to reaffirm
his vows to his beautiful bride in front of all
those cheap people. That led to one particular host to
skip that trip. Steve Garvey, our dear friend. As big
a superstar as baseball had from the mid seventies through

(14:59):
the early eighties, good looks, great play, countless all star appearances,
more on that in a minute, a few trips to
the World Series a title. But first the clip, the
quote that stood out to me a little bit was
him lamenting as you asked him about the global nature
of this roster, about the impact of the Dodgers on

(15:21):
this big blue ball floating in infinite space, and him
harkening back to when it was the great American pastime.

Speaker 5 (15:28):
So we always saw to the Dodgers and Yankees, said,
the two most famous global brands. And then all of
a sudden you start to get emerging markets like Japan
and Korea, other countries that start to play quality ball.
I think the World Baseball class they helped do that,
and the Yamato and Suzaki and Kim and players like that,

(15:50):
and you've become truly a global brand. It's one step beyond.
And you know, with media now in the cloud, how
you can reach people their different platforms. I think it's
great for the gay people always say baseball is in
third behind football and basketball. It really is the one
true sport that separated itself at our national pastime.

Speaker 6 (16:10):
Hey you hear that, Lynn, You can get in the cloud, Okay,
it's everywhere.

Speaker 4 (16:15):
First of all, a little bit of an issue with
the app yesterday.

Speaker 2 (16:18):
By now over all that reads true ballpark app. You're
gonna have hiccups. That's game one.

Speaker 6 (16:23):
The thing that stuck out to me is they're not third.
They were, they are not. Baseball is no longer third.
That tide has shifted because of the disaster that the
NBA has become the last few years. The World Series
last year, yes it was Yankees Dodgers, but it averaged
fifteen plus million viewers fifteen point one million viewers.

Speaker 2 (16:44):
Per game, and it was a lopside of affair.

Speaker 6 (16:46):
There was dramatics in the game, but it was a
five game World Series, not a seven twenty twenty four
NBA Finals. Eleven million. That is a thirty three percent
difference advantage baseball. And while the NBA Finals wasn't New York, LA,
it was two top five markets and one of, if
not the most signature franchise Celtics v. Dallas, Jason Tatum,

(17:09):
Luka Doncic, two superstars, two of the five best players
in the league. Baseball is not third. And by the way,
there's some things and this is kind of what led
me to this point that they are still number one
at less important but worth acknowledging the NFL Pro Bowl
games are a joke. The NBA has already scrapped it's

(17:30):
one year disaster here in twenty twenty four to twenty
five of their mini tournament with the We're not.

Speaker 4 (17:36):
Gonna do team Team Black Guy versus Team Euro Guy
versus Team Euro.

Speaker 2 (17:41):
Black Guy versus Team Young Euro slash black Guys.

Speaker 4 (17:45):
I'm going with Team Old Black.

Speaker 6 (17:47):
Every time baseball still owns the mid season exhibition, the
Home Run Derby is still sensational. They don't have to
call up a minor leaguer to participate in order to
make that event compelling. Taioscar Hernandez winning the Home Run
Derby was a legitimate highlight for Dodger fans over the
course of a very memorable Dodger season. The Pro Bowl

(18:11):
one point one four million viewers, the NBA All Star
Game this year four point seven million viewers, Baseball last
year eight million, and I would guess this year it's
going to take a massive jump. Like could probably sniff
the ten to eleven million viewers from twenty fifteen with
the stars that will be out there, show Hey versus

(18:31):
Schemes or show Hey and Skins I should say throwing
against Aaron Judge and Alex Bregman and Mike Trout, Trek
Skouble and Jake de Gram or Garrett Crochet throwing to
Otani to Soto to Tatistos are superstars. Those are superstars.
And you cannot top a superstar v superstar, legitimate showdown

(18:52):
which you get in in a bat in the MLB
All Star Game. But that pales in comparison to But
we were blessed to be part of yesterday yet again,
and that is Opening Day Major League Baseball and opening Day.
There is no rival. There's nothing I love football but

(19:12):
Opening Day in the NFL versus Opening Day in baseball.
The pomp, the circus thing, it's not the same the
local level shot. Look the NFL, it's in the name.
It's a national league, the National Football League, the NBA.

Speaker 4 (19:26):
Everybody gets excited when football starts again, but it's not.

Speaker 6 (19:29):
It's not it'sal No, it's because they're Opening Day as such, right,
They're Opening Day is national. It's the defending Super Bowl
champions on Thursday night against an opponent, oh.

Speaker 4 (19:40):
With some terrible musical accompaniment.

Speaker 6 (19:43):
And then you get now we you know, I full
know because we're going to Brazil. Now, you're going to
get an international game on Friday following Thursday, and by
the time Sunday comes around, you've already watched two games.
They're already in the books, and while it might not
be your favorite team, you still watched it. You still
had an open day Eagles versus whoever, Chargers versus whoever
in Brazil, and you're gonna watch it because that's what

(20:05):
happens with the NFL, and that sort of makes the
kickoff between the Raiders and their opponent or the Rams
and their opponent a little less impactful because you're already
lathered up with your prize picks used to code KLAC
get fifty dollars after you make your first five dollars play,
or you're playing your fantasy team, or you're at the
local bar where you suck back a million wings and
some Modellos.

Speaker 2 (20:23):
And it already happened opening day yesterday.

Speaker 6 (20:26):
You could feel it when you walk through the concourse
and as much fun as we had on the field,
chatting with all the big baseball seam heads, the legends,
you know, getting and giving knuckles, our feet in the dirt,
smelling the fresh cut grass, A.

Speaker 4 (20:39):
Lot of knuckles, man, A lot of knuckles for you
like me. Well, I even felt I was just better
positioned Matt. I even felt like being nice to a
rash But I never got the opportunity me either.

Speaker 6 (20:51):
I don't think I even glanced in his direction. It's
the people at the stadium, p It's the generations from
the top of the world to the field level, deserve
blue seats, the stories of season tickets on their fourth
generation in a family been going for sixty years, my
son's been going for forty, his son for twenty. And
look at young Buck right here hitting up his first

(21:11):
ever opening day. And as I was walking out, I'm
sure you probably experienced it even more so. Ran into
so many people that listened to the show that love
Dodger Talk, that loved Tim Kates and Dodgers on deck,
David Vasse and just people full of light and positive energy,
and it was awesome.

Speaker 2 (21:32):
And one person in particular, and beer and beer.

Speaker 6 (21:35):
Yes, as I was evidenced in the photo I posted today,
I forgot you sent it to me yesterday. But Big
Gons was so excited to tell me that little Gons,
his son with his braces, was at his first ever
opening day and when he shared the photo with me
on Instagram, in the direct message, he wrote this quote,
The Otani jersey I'm seeing wearing here is one of

(21:57):
the first ever produced and I won it alling into
your show when you all had that chick from Lydds
there before the beginning.

Speaker 4 (22:04):
Of the season, the Lid's chick who can forget her?

Speaker 6 (22:07):
Thanks again, Dad to Dad, that's what it is. And
maybe you can get it at a Lakers or a
Clippers game with your kid. And maybe you can get
it at a Rams or a Chargers game with your kid.
And those are special moments, no question. But it's not baseball.
It's just not in the presentation. The game itself, all
the breaks, the sitting, the chatting, the trips to the
concession stands between innings, the dogs, the beers, the cookes,

(22:30):
the churos, the soft serve for Kates Man, it's just
the best. And then the game itself, the Dodgers, these
Dodgers coming off a World Series victory to do that.

Speaker 4 (22:40):
Oh, come on, Kirk Gibson and Freddy Freeman out there,
Matt right, what do you want? What more could you want?

Speaker 6 (22:47):
And then the game itself Tommy Edmund NLCS MVP going
deep like he did in Japan fan favorite. Everybody loves
the taoscar Vibe home run, Derby Champ difference making Homer
and the game in my God, I don't like the
cutaways to selectbrities. But in this case, Otani, with all
those expectations, with all the pressure, hits the donger and

(23:08):
you show Tom Hanks, Rob Low and Magic Johnson and
they're freaking out. Magic high five and everyone around him.

Speaker 4 (23:16):
Complete straight once. They usually show before Otani, like as
Otani's coming up, they just start shooting random Asian faces.
Oh yeah, and like here's an Asian and they're watching Otani.

Speaker 2 (23:27):
That's right.

Speaker 4 (23:27):
And here cut to another one and there's Otani up
and there's another Asian guy in the crowd.

Speaker 2 (23:32):
Look at the phone.

Speaker 6 (23:33):
They're going to capture this moment themselves on their personal
smart device.

Speaker 4 (23:38):
Yeah.

Speaker 6 (23:38):
Tom Hanks hugging his grandkids, He's pumping his arms while
he's holding a scorecard, and Rob Low is just all
giggly with excitement, Like that's what I'm talking about. Those
are celebrities, not sitting courtside treating a Laker game like
it's a damn publicity tour, per their agent, and you
need to be seen in this particular pair of suede
pants and this leather jacket with these highs zippers for

(24:00):
your pockets that just won't fit your hands. And even football,
it's not being in a suite at the fifty yard
line with five other celebrities.

Speaker 4 (24:07):
In your blue face.

Speaker 6 (24:08):
With blue face just so much more innocent, it's so
much more pure. And the Dodgers delivered brilliantly well.

Speaker 4 (24:16):
The NBA and the NFL have priced everybody else out.
That that is dad to dad kind of vibe, you know.
I mean, that's that's really the that's really what it's been,
and it's been like that for a long time. We
just happen to live in a town where the baseball
franchise that we're associated with is iconic and legendary, one

(24:37):
of the great iconic brands in the history of sports.
And they're having a renaissance right now, an unbelievable renaissance
that has surged baseball ahead of basketball.

Speaker 6 (24:47):
Said, and I'll quickly wrap with this pe. The other
thing is we're not joking when we say this. You'll
hear him here being lighthearted about it, but I gotta
believe it has to cut him deep. I hope it's
and it says h O F twenty six. That's what
it better say.

Speaker 4 (25:04):
That's twenty six.

Speaker 5 (25:05):
Cool.

Speaker 4 (25:05):
Well, I do have said a record.

Speaker 5 (25:06):
I've been on the ballot the longest of any.

Speaker 2 (25:08):
Human sorry, and this is the year. This is the year.

Speaker 5 (25:12):
Two more years now I've revolved.

Speaker 2 (25:14):
Thank you. Guys have always been great on the best.

Speaker 6 (25:18):
That we still live in a world that Steve Garvey
isn't a Hall of Famer. And I know we're two
idiots and it's a local Dodger station and he's great
to us, and we're just gonna say it. But like this,
we've got to figure something out. Like I just I
just blow with the wind, you know, Matt, I you
know I don't how to figure this out.

Speaker 4 (25:36):
I would I would defer to Steve Hartman.

Speaker 2 (25:40):
Right, let's get what is Hartman doing? He says, no,
well that's not okay.

Speaker 4 (25:45):
Don't you remember we brought him on and he said
Hartman's out when we were at the Dream Center.

Speaker 2 (25:50):
He said, no on Garvy, I believe he did. But
we can get him back.

Speaker 4 (25:53):
Yeah, let's get him.

Speaker 6 (25:54):
Backt's get him back seventy four through eighty one in
All Stars seven consecutive years, he won the MVP. Next
four seasons, he finishes top six consecutively. An All Star
first baseman for eight consecutive years, and you're gonna put
freaking Billy Wagner in the Hall of Fame. Billy Wagner's

(26:14):
got a Teddy alread or what et seven?

Speaker 2 (26:17):
Or I go to the playoffs? Think about that.

Speaker 4 (26:18):
Hartman was against that as well.

Speaker 6 (26:20):
Yes, but it's it's embarrassing. He's seventy seven. He is
seventy seven years old. And there's gotta be something to
those eight consecutive years of being an All Star, those
eight consecutive years of playing one hundred and fifty six
one sixty one sixty two, one sixty two, one sixty two,

(26:40):
one sixty two, one sixty three in a row.

Speaker 2 (26:45):
At age thirty.

Speaker 6 (26:46):
Three, he's still playing one hundred and sixty two games.
That is a value. You go to the Hall of Fame,
you're gonna show your kid the Steve Garvey plaque. You
gonna tell him about the All Star Games that forty
million people used to watch. You're gonna tell him about
hitting three point thirty in the playoffs about banging a
couple hits off Steve Carlton when no other Dodger could.

(27:07):
I mean, no one's got to stand in front of
a Billy Wagner plaque and say, hey, this guy saved
like over four hundred games. Prettyweet, right, Billy Wagner junior man,
I mean that's true.

Speaker 2 (27:18):
Like we have to.

Speaker 6 (27:18):
We've got to figure so Kate's we gotta do this.
You're the baseball We got to figure out who the
curator is of the Hall of Fame, someone who leads
the baseball run stuffy weirdos.

Speaker 4 (27:27):
They don't want to deal with us.

Speaker 2 (27:28):
We need to call him out.

Speaker 4 (27:29):
Well, put a Hartman back on. We need to.

Speaker 6 (27:32):
This is the year we've got the seventy seven years old.
You can see the pain had caused him in his
face yesterday. We've got to figure this out.

Speaker 4 (27:40):
Yeah, he looked like Clint Eastwoods standing in the wind
when you asked him about it. Steve Garvey a great man.
We did have a great day yesterday, and it's great
to have the Dodger season up and running. Dodgers Detroit

lot of good shows this week, a lot of strands
in the old Douder's head on the iHeartRadio app for
your smartphone. My dad been talking about this guy for
many years.

Speaker 3 (29:31):
To me.

Speaker 4 (29:31):
Anytime we were at the Saint Sophia Cathedral, Matt, my
father would say, you know, this was built by a
Greek who was a movie morgan. So for many years
I remembered that. And we'll do some Greek news today.

Speaker 2 (29:50):
Greek news news that is Greek invented democracy. And we're
the first people.

Speaker 3 (29:59):
Who you know, we think.

Speaker 2 (30:02):
Now here's Petrus Papa donkeys.

Speaker 4 (30:06):
This man is a Greek one hundred and thirty two
years old today, Spidros Scuros, son of a sheepherder. Matt,
you worked for a Greek business conglomerate family, the Spanos family. Oh,
pantagious theater opened by a Greek as well.

Speaker 2 (30:27):
It's Greek.

Speaker 4 (30:27):
Wek this guy a very important Greek son of a sheepherder.
Like we said from the west side of the Peloponi.
He came with his brothers, Charles and Yorgos in nineteen
ten to the United States. They started working in the
service industry, busting tables and tending bar in Saint Louis.

(30:48):
They lived frugally, pooled their money and built a Nickelodeon
theater in nineteen fourteen. It was successful, not as successful
as it would have been. If a local teetotaler named
Aloysius Kates allowed his daughters to go to the Nickelodeon's right,
he would not. But they built that theater and then

(31:11):
they started buying up theaters and they did well. They
started buying theaters and had a whole theater company. When
the stock market crashed, the Scudos brothers in nineteen twenty
nine sold their shares to Warner Brothers, moved to New
York and became executives. That's how you become an executive man.

Speaker 6 (31:31):
Apparently, by selling everything there to do a crash and
then just showing up and be like, hey, we got money,
we're executives.

Speaker 4 (31:38):
Yeah, I sold that to you, and guess what was
in the contract. I'm in charge, right. Spidos took over
WB Theaters and quadrupled their profits during the Great Depression.
Then they bought Fox Theaters and the Scudas brothers moved west.
And they are the guys who merged because they had

(32:00):
big shares in both companies. Twentieth Century Pictures with Fox Studios.
How about that, creating twentieth Century Fox. So he was
in charge of Fox twentieth Century Fox Studios. The longest
tenure of any studio had ever was Spiedros. Through the fifties.

(32:21):
He controlled a great deal of the movie business and
oversaw the production of The Hustler, The King and I
the Seven Year Itch. He changed Norma Jean's name to
Marilyn Monroe.

Speaker 2 (32:34):
Never heard of her.

Speaker 4 (32:36):
Are you sure.

Speaker 2 (32:40):
Now you will be Marilyn Monroe?

Speaker 4 (32:43):
Yeah, And she called him Papascuros and uh when TV
theaters were being attacked, where TV was attacking the theaters,
you know, Matt, just like the Beta, Max was supposed
to put the theaters at a commission, that's what they said.
Well they said that too when TV started and scud

(33:06):
Us attacked back with the robe in CinemaScope instead, right,
and that technology became the standard. It was a hell
of a CounterPunch. Cleopatra took him down the bloated disaster production.

(33:26):
That was Cleopatra with drugged out Elizabeth Taylor sex addict
and drunken soaked in Scotch. Richard Burton, that was ishtar.
That caused a revolts amongst the studios. Bored and he
was removed. He was That's when Xanik took over. But

(33:50):
he was also very He wasn't sweating man. He was
also very successful in the shipping industry. Died at seventy
eight in nineteen seventy one. In uh his day, Bob
Hope once said about the famous Greek accent of Spiros Scuros,
that Spiros has been here twenty years, but he still

(34:11):
sounds as if he's coming next week.

Speaker 2 (34:14):
The Richard blade syndrome. Oh yeah, how long have you
been here?

Speaker 4 (34:18):
A good Richard boy, I mean, but you couldn't say
he was hurting sheep in the middle of nowhere. Yeah,
for a good part of the beginning of his life.
So it's hard to get over that. And if you
see the big church ever on Pico and Normandy in
the Byzantine Latin district down there, that is what the

(34:39):
Scuras brothers built in great donations to the Orthodox Church
and Tom Hanks another movie legend still and Rita Wilson
still attend that church today.

Speaker 6 (34:50):
Well, this would be an instance of when your father
told you about greatness from Greece and it actually ringing true.
What do you mean, Well, you would say that he
would point out that like oh oh yeah, found that
is like he wasn't agreed.

Speaker 4 (35:07):
I look it up and it's like, no, this guy
was Hungarian, but the guy does the zither player and
uh and the third man a Greek. No, no, no, no,
it's the local ena. What do you got? Mad I got?

Speaker 6 (35:24):
Masud Rana Shakib Khan is the stage name known as
King Khan. Do we have Bangladeshi news? Do we have
that contusion? We do not have Bangladeshi news? All right,
then just fire off the pufon his biggest film ever.

Speaker 2 (35:45):
Pufon has he.

Speaker 4 (35:49):
Yeah, Jose, you hear that?

Speaker 6 (35:54):
And then it goes into dance. One of the the
most famous, probably the most famous Bengali actor of all time,
born in Bangladesh, father a g Man, so they moved
around a whole lot. He met fellow Bengali superstar Aziz
Raza in nineteen ninety five. Ladin at his first lead
in a feature film in nineteen ninety nine. The movie

(36:16):
was not a big success, but from there the career
took off. Turned into a superstar into the first installment
of non Gen Universe, a supernatural theme shape shifting serpents
that can take human form. I guess it's kind of
like their Avengers series over there in Bangladesh. Huge movie.

(36:38):
He did some rom com but the not Nadgen or
Nagyen universe kept calling him back. Action dramas became his
ghost Serpentine Nogin. Yes, a little different out there. This
guy is pomping out a minimum ten films per yeer.
And by the way, it's very hard to pull a
clip because they'll do like three lines and then they'll

(36:59):
sing for like ten seconds, and then they'll do like
three more lines and they'll sing for thirty seconds. But
minimum ten per year. In two thousand and two, he
wins his first NET Now how about this award? Okay,
you want to win like Best Supporting Actor, Best Director,
Best Adaptation Screenplayer or something like this. No our guy,

(37:19):
King Khn. He won his first National Film Award in
two thousand and two four Best Actor in a negative role. Okay,
how about that very competitive heat.

Speaker 4 (37:30):
Sit on one side of the They sit on one
side of the arena during the award show. The positive
people are the other.

Speaker 6 (37:36):
His character Sheik Dead, a series that told the story
of the most notorious serial killer in Bangladesh history by
the same name. In two thousand and seven alone, he
was in thirteen.

Speaker 4 (37:49):
That's serial killer's name, Typhoid.

Speaker 6 (37:52):
Yes, every one of his films released in twenty seven,
thirteen of them mega hit at the box office. Two
thousand and eight, did sixteen, two thousand and nine, seventeen.
He's a big cricket guy. He's a big TV guy,
like Jake or the other whatever. His brother's name is
the Jake Paul. Got his own energy drink Power that

(38:12):
does really well. He's got his own cell service seem,
his own housing development Asian Duplex City, his own clothing line,
his own paint line, King Con. He is number one
total tally two hundred and forty seven films, the most
popular actor in Bangladesh of the two thousands, the twenty tens,

(38:34):
and still here in the early twenty twenties. He's still
number one. They call him the Tom cruise of Bangladesh
without the crazy scientology thing.

Speaker 2 (38:41):
Of course.

Speaker 4 (38:41):
Wow, what has he got going out there?

Speaker 6 (38:43):
Blake well to anybody's got going p I'm glad you asked,
because the Calcutt of Times ranked him as the most
desirable man in twenty nineteen. So you can have your
People magazine. He's got the Calcutt of Times. Married one son, divorce,
married again, other son with a second wife, both wives
incredibly famous Bengali actresses. He's got his own cosmetic line.

(39:07):
Now he is kicking around a run for parliament. But
apparently some skeletons in the closet. Oh no, yeah, I
got to that at the very end of a very
long biography that I edited. Been sued a bunch of
times for what. Well, one time he ignored sue me
for what? He ignored his permit being turned down to
expand his massive estate in Kikitan and still expanded it

(39:31):
by ten thousand square feet, and they took him to
court and sued him for that. Happy forty sixth to
the King of Bengali cinema, King Kong. I'm gonna say
I was into it, man. I was like, dude, I

(39:51):
gotta watch this. Oh my sisters three hours long.

Speaker 4 (39:54):
My sisters. You know, Simon has a twin, my brother
in law, right, and his twin married a Bangladeshi guy.
They're like, you know, academic types, and they had their
wedding out there and they were like, Angel, you know,
